After an impactful seven-year tenure at Lighthouse, Vasilios Riavoglou announces his new chapter: partnering with Victor Matsas and Dimitrios Karypidis to help lead the charge at Hotel Insider and HBIS (Hotel BI Suite) — two fast-growing companies redefining hotel performance, profitability, and intelligence across the hospitality industry.
This move follows a remarkable milestone — surpassing £1 million in new sales ARR with Lighthouse (formerly OTA Insight) — a testament to the momentum, demand, and trust Vasilios has cultivated within the industry.
“What drew me in was more than just the numbers,” said Vasilios. “It was the rare combination of bold vision and operational brilliance. Hotel Insider brings a refreshing, no-nonsense approach to strategic rate optimization, while HBIS amazed me with its ability to distill complex performance data into sharp, actionable insights. It’s lean, fast, and built with the operator in mind.”
